Hey; Building new PC since my 8 year-old PC, Checking if reusing my 8year-old Corsair AX1500i PSU is advisable as I know common life span of capacitors are usually between 8 to 10 years. And I don't to build a PC for another 5 to 10 years. So two questions: Q1: Use the 8 year-old PSU or Buy a new PSU? (with Reasoning) Q2: Is the Corsair 16pin GPU Cable (Link: https://www.corsair.com/us/en/Categories/Products/Accessories-|-Parts/PC-Components/Power-Supplies/600W-PCIe-5-0-12VHPWR-Type-4-PSU-Power-Cable/p/CP-8920284 ) compatible with Corsair AX1500i for ASUS TUF 4090 OC? Appreciate your replies. Regards; -
I had to move my pc to a different location in the house. I unplugged everything from the mobo and hit the power switch on the ax1500i to off. After plugging everything back in, I hit the power switch then hit the case power and the pc would turn on, then right away turn off and would keep repeating this like its trying to boot but it can't. I didn't mess with any cables inside, it was just a simple move of the pc. So, I unplugged everything again, opened up the case and fiddled with some cables to make sure everything was in all the way and tried to boot without anything plugged in. IT WORKED..... but not for long. I thought ok, it can boot, so I turned it off, plugged everything back in and again its doing the one second of trying to turn on. I've had my ax1500i since 2016. The only change I made recently was a new msi3080 in November but its been working absolutely fine since then. I did the self test on the ax1500i and it was green light the whole time. Any guidance would be appreciated :biggrin: Specs: ax1500i MSI Gaming Trio 3080 Sabertooth X99 Corsair Vengeance LPX 32GB 4x8 i7-5960x -
Hi Team, I had an AX1200i which has been replaced with a DoA ax1200i and then replaced with an AX1500i however the new 1500 now has the same issue as the original AX1200i - it has a long beep that wont go away until reset of the power. video of noise here. https://streamable.com/30zyfz I would like to know why this is happening. I have escalated for my support ticket to get resolved again however understanding the nature of the fault would be appreciated.

A few years ago I built a gaming PC based around: Lian-Li V2120 HPTX Tower Corsair AX1500i Digital Asus Rampage IV Black Edition Intel Core i7 4930K Ivybridge-E AquaComputer Cuplex Kryos XT Corsair Vengeance Pro Red 32GB Quad Channel 3 x EVGA NVIDIA GeForce GTX Titan Black 6GB Hydro Copper AquaComputer Aquaero 6XT Koolance RP-452X2 Dual 5.25 inch Bay Reservoir Revision 2.0 2 x AquaComputer D5 Pump with USB & Aquabus Interface 4 x Koolance ENC-360 (3 x 120mm) Radiator Enclosure 2 x Koolance HX-360XC (3 x 120mm) Radiator 9 x Corsair SP120 High Static Pressure For the past 6 months I have had intermittent problems during boot-up, with the PC failing to complete even the early stages of the BIOS process before switching itself off. After many weekends checking every MB slot and cable connection, swapping out cables such as the main 24 pin ATX, and testing various components on a separate test rig, I believe the problem must be down to the MB or PSU. The AX1500i’s self test either lights green after pressing the ‘test’ button or sometimes fails to light at all. Perhaps more interestingly, it fails test using two different types of PSU tester (ThermalTake Dr Power II and a unit branded YBLNTEK which looks much like a Lindy unit from Amazon) for its ‘Power Good’ signal timing, which consistently exceeds 500Ms, but the PSU self-test LED shows green during power-up? Unfortunately, I am disabled (due to a spine injury) and worsening mobility and manual dexterity now means that PC building and testing takes me 10-15 times longer than before my accident (I am not exaggerating) and my Wife is most unhappy that the kitchen table has been my ‘work bench’ for many weeks with seemingly little progress. In the interim, I have been using my slightly older Water-cooled PC which has a similar spec MB, CPU, memory, etc, but uses a pair of water-cooled Asus AMD Radeon HD7990-6GD5. However, the Corsair AX1500i fitted to this PC ‘exploded’ last week 5 minutes after switch-on! There is no evidence of any coolant leakage (I also have Koolance leakage detection units fitted) or external MB/component shorting, just a very loud bang and lots of smoke venting from the PSU and a blown 13Amp fuse on the surge protected Belkin distribution socket.. I have not started investigating this problem fully yet as this PC is housed in a very large Supermicro SC801 case and is far too heavy to move downstairs (from my study) and working ‘on the floor’ is both painful and slow (I am also expecting the worse and suspect a new MB, CPU, Memory, etc. will be needed unless the PSU was able to contain its fault? Any comments on the significance of a 'late' POWER GOOD signal with respect to a fairly modern MB, i.e. is an extra few hundred milli-seconds really a problem or is this a throw-back to earlier server demands?, or ideas would be most welcome............ Regards, Martin
